Search engines use Alt Text to understand images. The Alt Text box is usually one of the first options you can fill out when you upload an image. You can also add this directly in your HTML by simply adding “alt="this is your alt text"” to your image tag. You can put in additional keywords when you are adding the descriptions of the images, too.

Image optimization is way to increase the visibility of your images in google results and in other way you can say you have to make images google and user friendly

The best practice for image optimization is as follow

1. Alt Text :- it’s the text that the search engine uses to understand images ,
you simply add alt="this is your alt text" to your image tag. Here’s an example:

<img src="SEO-Training-Chandigarh.jpg" alt="SEO training in Chandigarh" />

2. File Size :- You know that page load time for user as wella s google so make sure file size of your images do not hurt page load time
make the size of image as small as possible without compromising the quality of your image

3. Image name :- Before you upload your image rename your image as descriptive as possible , generally we use keyword we want to rank for as file name
e.g. <img src="SEO-Training-Chandigarh.jpg" alt="SEO training in Chandigarh" />
SEO-Training-Chandigarh.jpg is your file name
If you search any keyword all the images ranking for that specific keyword have same file name.

4. Captions :- Even caption of website have no direct relation with SEo what still if we are talking about bounce rate it is important.
try to place image captions next to headings

image optimization means you have to use ALT tag in your image for search engines to understand your image.

[daviddakarai]

Image relevancy is important when it comes to image optimization for SEO. The Alt tag is probably the most important image optimization factor. Alt stands for alternate. The text in the alt tag is displayed in place of the image if the image can not be shown or is taking too long to load.
The location of your images appears as an empty space to the search engines. These empty spaces are not in any way good for your overall SEO. The alt tag not only tells the search engines that there is an image placed here but also informs it about the topic of your image.
